black abyss

At 47:[-] in the evening, the sun had just set, and there was a layer of burning clouds dotting the sky.

This piece of fiery red cloud sets off the white-year-old yard as if it has been filtered, showing a kind of tranquility unique to summer.

There is a huge floor-to-ceiling window facing the yard in the Bainian house, and the transparent glass window also prints the glow of the sky.

Inside the glass window stained a little by the red glow, Chi Waiting bent his knees and stretched out his hand, and was looking at the yard through the window while gaiting.

He was wearing a comfortable cotton T-shirt, and a pair of dark blue beach shorts. He scratched the floor vigorously with his toes. There was a small ornament hanging on the glass in front of him, and there were two small snakes as thick as fingers entangled on the ornament.

Chi waited unblinkingly, staring at the two leisurely little snakes as if facing a formidable enemy.

With a pen in his mouth, he was panting heavily, and he was striding towards the French windows with great difficulty.

Bai Nian is sitting on the sofa at the moment, and he is holding a tablet with his legs crossed to check the data.

The sofa was facing away from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and when looking from Chiwai's direction, only the back of Bai Nian's head could be seen.

Chi waited for the pen to bite his teeth, his ears were keenly paying attention to Bai Nian's movements, and his body wanted to move back without a trace.

"Wait a minute."

Bai Nian's voice suddenly came from the sofa.

This sudden sound made Chi Waiting's heart skip a beat, he thought that Bai Nian had noticed that he was moving and was about to reach out and strangle the two snakes in front of him.

He said "no, no", trying very hard to convey to Bai Nian that he was taking a serious stride.

With his back turned to him, Bai Nian stared at the various plans he had drawn up on the tablet, not paying attention to Chiwai's small thoughts.

He pondered and said, "I will gradually let you accept what you couldn't accept in the past."

Chi Waiting stared at the two snakes in front of him, his fingers stretched forward almost uncontrollably, wanting to tear the two little snakes in front of him.

Bai Nian continued to murmur unhurriedly: "In contrast, your acceptance of these things will gradually increase.

Your fluctuating emotions will stabilize as your receptivity increases. "

Chi waited for his ears to move in his horse gait. He listened very carefully to what was happening on Bai Nian's side. He heard the sound of Bai Nian's fingers poking the tablet, and the sound of the cloth on Bai Nian's body rubbing against the sofa. He could even hear To Bai Nian's neck is the sound of hanging down.

Think about it later, Bai Nian was not paying attention to himself, he slowed down his breathing, and slightly loosened his teeth clenched on the pen. He was going to use the pen to pick up the two little snakes in front of him later, and threw them into his sight Nowhere to be seen again.

Bai Nian's voice came from the sofa again: "Your spiritual world is now distorted. Although you can run and jump now, you don't know when he will directly swallow your mind. If you let it go like this, the end will be either Either you went completely insane and locked up in the Black Tower, or you were taken back to the treatment unit and spent the rest of your life in a sanitarium."

Chi waited slowly withdrew his right hand, and gently took down the pen from his mouth.

Bai Nian said: "We reached a consensus a few hours ago.

If you want to live normally, I will help you; and I need to use you to observe and judge what happened to those sentinels who went down to the black abyss five years ago. "

Chiwai didn't answer.

Bai Nian turned his head and glanced at him, Chiwai was already grabbing the end of the pen to seduce the listless corn snake.

Bai Nian's face darkened, and he asked calmly, "Is my statement correct?" Chiwai put all his energy on the seemingly harmless snake, and his fingers holding the pen even trembled. Get goosebumps.

Bai Nian pulled his voice and said, "Xiao Bai."

Chi Wait's hand holding the pen shook, and the pen fell to the ground with a sound. The snake also slid to the floor along with the pen. After winding around the ground for a few times, it circled itself into a ball.

Chi waited to bend his knees, straightened his arms and continued to zama step.

Bai Nian put down the tablet and walked towards Chiwai. He stood behind Chiwai and looked up and down Chiwai's posture with a mocking face on his face.

"The horse's gait is steady."

Bai Nian sneered.

"It's all taught by Teacher Bai."

Chiwai immediately answered.

Bai Nian's gaze scanned Chi Wait up and down, and asked blankly, "Is there something wrong with what I just said?" Chi Wait barely heard what Bai Nian just said, but he replied without thinking. :"no problem."

After Chiwai's words fell, Bai Nian's face darkened, and he scolded in a cold voice: "Then what were you doing just now?" "I'm sorry, Teacher Bai, I was wrong."

Wait for the speed of light to start apologizing.

Bai Nian looked at him with a sulky face, obviously very dissatisfied with this mild apology.

The attitude of waiting is very good: "I apologize, you can fine me to stand here all night as punishment."

Bai Nian sneered: "Do you think the punishment you propose will have a punitive effect?" Chiwai's attitude became even better: "Then you say."

Bai Nian looked at the side face who had been waiting for a while, and was about to speak when his mobile phone on the coffee table rang.

Bai Nian frowned and glanced at the sofa, then looked back and said to Chi Waiting, "Wait."

After he finished speaking, he walked back to the sofa to get his mobile phone. Seeing that the caller ID showed the word "Nie Ping", he looked disgusted and hesitated for a few seconds before pressing the answer button: "Hey, Team Leader Nie, what's the matter?" Team Leader Nie The voice still sounded cheerful as always: "Mr. Bai, have you received the things?" Bai Nian said, "Yes."

After finishing speaking, he reminded, "Remember to pay the money for the damaged furniture to my card."

"..." Nie Ping's voice paused for a very obvious moment, but he didn't seem to hold back, and asked, "Mr. Bai, how much do you think this furniture should be discounted?" Bai Nian said, "It's according to your office. The set of leather sofa and the whole set of solid wood desk will be given to you now."

Nie Ping was not embarrassed, and after thinking about it, he agreed directly.

"That's okay, hang up."

After Bai Nian finished speaking, he wanted to hang up the phone.

"Wait, wait, Teacher Bai."

Nie Ping stopped immediately.

"What else?" Bai Nian asked.

"I want to ask what you do for raising snakes? Is it related to being late?" Nie Ping talked faster when talking about this matter, and his voice was no longer that of a cheerful old man in clothes.

"Ah."

Bai Nian replied concisely.

"..." Nie Ping paused and waited, his voice almost filled with melancholy when he saw that there was nothing to say, "What do you need a snake for? Is there anything else that our treatment team can provide, Teacher Bai?" He said politely. After asking this question, I remembered that the person who spoke to me was Bai Nian, who didn't pay much attention to etiquette, and immediately added another sentence: "You must have made a spiritual contract with me, and you want to share information about delays with me." .”
